Career Fairs Impact

Career Fairs

Career Fairs are a great way for students and alumni to interact with local and national employers by presenting their interview skills, handing out resumes, or simply networking with companies within their area of interest!

Students and Alumni:  The Staff at Encova Career Development Center are available to meet with you to practice your interview skills, review your resume, and explore career options before attending Career Fairs at Fairmont State University. 

Put your best foot forward - here are some helpful tips for attending the Career Fair:

  • Professional dress is required.
  • Practice a professional, firm handshake.
  • Brainstorm some questions for the employers to show you are interested and engaged in the process.
  • Bring a notebook or tablet with you so you can take notes as you are walking around and exploring the different employers.
